I really enjoyed this film but the prologue and epilogue were unnecessary and far too long. Excellent acting all round and a good story with well developed characters.

Beautiful movie. It has everything. It's also one of the best film adaptations of a Stephen King novel. The connection King forges between his stories/characters and his readers is difficult to transfer to the screen - but The Green Mile succeeds amazingly well. One of my all time favourites.

Love this movie you feel so many emotions from horror to happiness and everything else in between you can feel the tension when John Coffey performs the miracles he performs also you feel your anger boiling up when Percy screws up the execution you know that he only there because he had someone pull strings for him I would watch this movie over and over again and would totally recommend that you watch it excellent acting by the cast it truly is amazing what they done to bring the book to life
